HARMONISATION
FixO3 General Assembly 14th to the 16th October 2014, Heraklion-CRETE
ESTOC, PLOCAN, [email protected]@plocan.eu,
WP 2 / WP3 – Technological & Procedural HarmonisationTask 2.1:Review of the current status of all fixed observing sitesTask 3.1: Assessment of procedures
Current status of the Observatory (October 2014)
• Position: 29,181º N; 15.585º W• ODAS Buoy + Mooring line• Sensors at ODAS buoy:Meteo.: Barometric Pressure, air temperature,
Relative humidity, PAR and Wind speed and direction.
Ocean: sea surface temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, pH, pCO2, Chlorophyll, turbidity.
• Sensors at mooring line (100m depth): Temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, chlorophyll and current
• people involved: Xabier Remirez, A. Cianca and other technicians

WP 2 / WP3 – Technological & Procedural HarmonisationTask 2.1:Review of the current status of all fixed observing sitesTask 3.1: Assessment of procedures
Real Time (parameters) Delayed Mode(Parameters at 100m)- Temperature- Salinity- Dissolved Oxygen- Current- Chlorophyll
WP 2 / WP3 – Technological & Procedural HarmonisationTask 2.1:Review of the current status of all fixed observing sitesTask 3.1: Assessment of procedures
Operating Scheme/Schematic (with time intervals)Pre- Deployment (5 months)- Maintenance buoy and sensors (cleaning and repairs)-Calibration for sensors (if needed)-Sensor and mooring line purchase (if needed).-Sensor validation prior to fix in the buoy (water tank and laboratory measurements)- On land test prior coastal-site deployment
Coastal-site Deployment15- 30 days)-after deployment, the buoy is recovered, buoy and sensors are cleaned for ESTOC deployment- Sensor maintenance or replacement (if needed)
ESTOC-site Deployment2 - 5 days
(ship-time availability and weather conditions)
On the Field (1 day)Casual visit because of communication problems. For that, it is necessary very good weather and ship availability.Pre- Deployment: sensor validations – land test – coastal-site test
- Design issue: a bad weight distribution produced a slight tilting angle. Redistribution of weight.-Over expected power consumption from pCO2 and pH sensor. Change in the configuration of the sensors.- Difficulties with meteorological sensor validation (calibration from manufacturers). Only a comparison with sensors from AEMET was available.
